Leicestershire Foxes welcome holders Northants Steelbacks to the Fischer County Ground for the first home NatWest T20 Blast game of the 2017 season.
Both sides have a tremendous history in the competition so everything is set for a terrific game on Friday, July 21.
Leicestershire are the only team to win the trophy on three occasions while the Steelbacks have lifted the trophy twice in the last four years.
NatWest T20 Blast is being played in a block in 2017 with the Foxes opening with a trip to face Lancashire Lightning on Sunday, July 9.
It is the first of four successive away games for Leicestershire with matches to follow at Worcestershire Rapids, Birmingham Bears and Durham Jets.
The Foxes then have three home games in a week as the Northants game is followed by the visit of Birmingham Bears on Tuesday, July 25 while 2016 finalists Durham Jets are the second home Friday night fixture (Friday, July 28).
A match at Derbyshire Falcons is followed by two further games in the space of three days that always prove popular at the Fischer County Ground - Notts Outlaws (Wednesday, August 2) and Lancashire Lightning (Friday, August 4).
Northants Steelbacks provide the opposition at Wantage Road on Friday, August 11 and Yorkshire Vikings travel to the Fischer County Ground for the 2017 weekend fixture on Saturday, August 12.
The home campaign is rounded off by a visit of Derbyshire Falcons (Thursday, August 17) and the final game, just as in 2016, is a floodlit trip to Trent Bridge the following evening.
